Does anyone experience this? Can't sleep until an immediate violent sleep wave hits
​
im struggling to find this described anywhere in literature or in posts online. maybe someone knows what this is or has experienced it.
\- occurring the last 15 years
\- Can experience no sleep up to 4 days unmedicated
\-Occurred before I was medicated, can occur in extreme exhaustion, occurs with sleeping meds
\-Can be sedated for hours (various sleep meds over the years) but I dont fall asleep until I am hit with this sleep tsunami
\- I feel extremely unwell when this occurs, I am virtually non functional, its feels like I am being pulled/falling, I immediately try to go with the wave and get comfy. I am usually asleep within seconds
\- If I dont go with the wave (very short window) I could be hours waiting for another wave to hit
\- its very to interrupt it, for instance if I need the bathroom
I hope Im not the only one.Im audhd, have mecfs and POTS.
